Bus Services (Bloomington Transit)

Case Date:
6/17/2024

There is a bench with a bus stop on N Illinois St across from N Illinois CT where the playground is always blocked by parked vehicles now that the no parking sign has gone missing. The bus can't pull over to the curb where there is concrete connecting the sidewalk so people in wheelchairs and with crutches can safely get on the bus' lift system. You have to walk out into the road now, and can't see the bus very well or other cars coming. Traffic coming from the other way has to come to a complete stop, now, when the bus comes through. When I politely asked the people parking there if they could leave enough room for the bus to pull over because I'm about to have surgery and be in a wheelchair to get to work, they called me fat and told me to walk as they were getting out of their parked vehicles, and they were very mean for no reason. We all live in public housing here, and I use public transportation for work. We also don't have any grocery stores close and have to take a bus to get food. We need no parking signs at our bus stops, and painted curbs showing people the width of the bus on N Illinois, and possibly the one attending corner of Lindbergh Dr and whatever that cross street is as well. Now that those remodeled units are becoming occupied, there will always be cars there unless we get No Parking signs for our bus stops. Thank you.

Animal Control & Neglected Pets

Case Date:
6/17/2024

Neighbors who live at 3507 E Morningside Dr constantly have their dog off leash. The husband walks the dog off leash all the time. I have seen the dog multiple times walking up to peoples front doors and pooping in the middle of yards. I have spoken with the wife about keeping the dog on a leash, she does but the husband does not. This morning the dog came on my property and went into my house inside my garage and was there for several minutes. I took video. When I asked the husband to leash his dog and explained that it was the law he became very combative and confrontational.

Traffic Suggestions

E 7th St & N Indiana Ave, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA

Case Date:
6/16/2024

The stop signs at this intersection are rather confusing because Indiana Avenue is a two-lane one-way street. It can be difficult to determine who has the right of way quickly enough to avoid interrupting the flow of traffic. Also, I have seen drivers ignore the stop signs on Indiana on several occasions. I think this intersection needs a stoplight.

Nuisance Lights

S Euclid Ave & W Howe St, Bloomington, IN 47403, USA

Case Date:
6/16/2024

The streetlight at 820 Howe street has recently been replaced, which is great --- except it's now extremely bright! Down at 344 S. Euclid, its blue light shines through a South-facing window and interferes with our sleep. Can it be dimmed (or made more yellow)?

Water Utility Problems

Case Date:
6/16/2024

The psi coming to the house is reading way too high--a plumber came out and measured the water pressure at 120 psi, which is way too high. According to the plumber, it has been potentially causing several problems in our house recently, including water heater valves to break on our new water heater, dishwasher leaks that led to us replacing the unit, pipes to leak, various faucet problems and damage to several parts of the house. After dealing with HVAC related to this yesterday, this morning we've discovered a leak in our kitchen plumbing that is now causing additional damage to the cabinetry. The plumber reported that high psi measurements are happening all over our end of town due to the city turning up the water pressure to accommodate new development. The city needs to address this issue, as it's posing a risk to so many of the existing homes in the area.

Blocked Street

2285 S Sweetbriar CT

Case Date:
6/15/2024

Our neighbors park their boat on the street almost every day. There are 4 homes at the end of Sweetbriar Court in a cul de sac. At times this boat and other vehicles make it inaccessible for bigger vehicles to pass through. This makes it inaccessible for Bloomington Access for Senior Citizens. It would make it impossible for a fire truck or ambulance to make it through as Well as trash and recycling trucks. I would appreciate some action from the city to deal with this issue. Thank you!
